Brian Berman: NEW Home Gallery – Open House as part of “Art in the Woods”

Brian Berman is one of my favorite artists – one of my favorite stone artists.

When I first moved to Suquamish I saw some signs for a stone carving class and tried to get Jim to sign up but it didn’t quite fit the schedule back then. Later I found out it was Brian who taught the classes and I have seen him and his work on the various tours and in galleries over the years.

It took me until a two years ago to buy my “TurtleBear” – a carved stone piece that resembles a bear sitting on a turtle – you really do need to see it, but it sits next to my favorite seat in the living room and I often reach over to just feel the smooth lines and appreciate the skill that went into creating it.

Brian and his wife Lisa will be opening their home in Indianola with a new gallery, as part of the Art in the Woods Studio Tour, November 9, 10, 11. The tour takes place in 25 studios around North Kitsap with 57 artists.

Dear Friends,

Art in the Woods studio tour is coming right up, November 9-11 and Lisa and I wanted to invite you to our beautiful new home gallery. I hope you can come to see my newest work in Bronze, Kiln Cast Glass, and some of my “Reaching for the Light” Series in stone. I also made a small series of “Peace Angels”, sculptures which everyone will enjoy during these challenging times.

If you are looking for a special gift for the holidays and can’t come to Art in the Woods, please call me at 360.697.2288, or email me for a private showing. This will be my last show of the year, as I’m taking a December break from the Bainbridge Island Studio Tour after showing there for the last 13 years. Please forward the flyer to any friends you think might like to see my work.

Lisa and I send you our very best!

“Art in the Woods” takes place over three days. You can cover the territory in one day but better yet take two or three days to enjoy the tour and Kitsap Peninsula. If you have to “select” galleries to visit – make sure Brian and Lisa in Indianola are on your list.
